Enjoying seizure-free days on the Ketogenic Diet

Tag Archives: frozen treats

Upon digging through one of our freezers the other day, I noticed we had lots of frozen strawberries. It was actually warm outside on that day – well, above 40 – so I felt like drinking something icy. I guess after you have had ice outside for 6 months, you miss it! 😉 So, I took a couple handfuls of those frozen vine-ripened berries from last summer and threw them in a blender with a little lemon juice, a bit of water and a few drops of liquid stevia – yum!

Of course, then everyone else wanted some. 🙂

Autumn then pulled out some of our Zipzicles packages and said, “Hey mom, may I make a batch of that strawberry stuff for some zipzicles?”

And so we did:

In one batch, we added some yogurt for a little extra protein 🙂

This is not so much a keto-treat as it is a great low-carb alternative to the store-bought frozen pops. However, when Autumn was on the diet, she would make frozen Zipzicles using water and a few drops of flavored stevia – she loved them! You can purchase liquid stevia drops in LOTS of different flavors:

They were a great treat she could enjoy while everyone else might be having traditional “Mr. Freeze/Ice Pops.” Even now, being off her diet, she still loves to make them in the summer!
